    New Thermochill 120.3 Shrouds

    To make the beast even beastlier (if that's possible?) I just received my 2 new shrouds for my 120.3 ordered from here: http://store.over-clock.com/ThermoChill.html They provide 40mm distance from fan to rad, old shrouds were a joke in comparrison, maybe 10mm. Fans seem quieter and temps seem very good. Now for some pics:

    Old shrouds:


    New shrouds:


    Some installed pics:




    And the current stable OC

    Wow... is your radiator effectiveness now less than 0.015 C/W with that new shroud and those 6 fans at 12V?


    You sure have got an amazing setup... mountainmods.com case, Iwaki RD-30 (at 18V?), Storm G5 (you'll get a G6 in the future? ), a 120.3 with a big shroud and 6 Sanyo Denki San Ace fans (at 7V?), a T-line, a GPU-block I don't recognise so fast (Silverprop?), and some distilled water + HydrX?


    And of course a great overclock.

    As always an awesome setup niksub. Did your overclock improve with the shroud? And what fans are those and at what voltage?

    The .015 C/W was with only 3 fans... Guessing here, but with my 6 and these shrouds would likely be at .011 or so? RD-30 is at 24v, fans at 7v, and yes, Fusion HL GPU block.

    Fans are Sanyo Denki's. OC impoved due to new CPU My 2 other CPU's maxed out at 4.3 and 4.2, this one is destined for 5Ghz on water.

    What volts on those fans? 7v? If 12v they must be loud no?

    Oh and I love how you have all this expensive equipment, and a 9800 XT. :P

    WOW is quite intensive I here though. I bet your cpu makes up for a lot though hehe. I have a X800 XT PE that does 590/590 on stock cooling/stock volts that I'd let go for the right price hehe.

    Interesting. Looks like we won't see cathar's next block till atleast G7 then and it'll have to be more cost-effective than G6 if it will enter production as G6 is in cathar's words too complex and not cost effective, especially for the relatively meager performance gains. I'm eager for G7.

    So there is no confusion, the shrouds did not create the OC... That is a new CPU that went into the rig at the same time as the shrouds. IIRC, the 2 shrouds with shipping from UK to me were about $60 or so, not cheap.

    that = £30.... so not too bad, thats like £10 shipping... it costs £6 for a UK courier ....
